OBJECTIVE To analyze risk factors in order to provide scientific gist in diagnosis and treatment of central venous catheter related sepsis(CRS) in patients with total parenteral nutrition(TPN). METHODS To make comparison of the 57 cases of CRS with 423 cases of non-CRS during 1998-2002.First,monovariable chi-square test and then non-condition Logistic regression analysis of the markedly different factors in SPSS10.0 were conducted. RESULTS The major risk factors might be infectious disease,duration of central venous catheter in,location of catheter, type of catheter and material of catheter,and serum protein

Objective:To explore the effects of voriconazole on the proliferation and morphology of Acanthamoeba cultivated in vitro,and to clarify the killing effects of voriconazole against the trophozoites and cysts of Acanthamoeba.Methods:The Acanthamoeba polyphaga at logarithmic phase were selected and divided into control group and experiment groups(2.5 and 25.0 mg·L-1).The Acanthamoeba in each group was collected at 24,48,72,and 96 h after drug administration,respectively.Then the concentrations of Acanthamoeba were calculated and the proliferation curves were drawn;inverted microscope was used to observe the morphology,activity and adherence of Acanthamoeba;the ultrastructures of Acanthamoeba were observed under electron microscope.Results:Compared with control group,the numbers of Acanthamoeba polyphaga in experiment groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01).The morphology of Acanthamoeba changed significantly under inverted microscope,and the shape of Acanthamoeba transformed from the trophozoites with irregular spiny filopodia to circular cysts.Even a large number of cell debris was observed.Different degrees of damage and even necrosis of Acanthamoeba in experiment groups were found under electron micro scope.Conclusion:Certain concentration of voriconazole can effectively inhibit the proliferation of Acanthamoeba and change the morphology and ultrastructure and kill the trophozoites and cysts of Acanthamoeba cultivated in vitro.

Objective To study the X-ray signs of forearm and leg in skeletal fluorosis and its diagnostic value,aim at finding the easy examination parts.Methods One thousand four hundred and forty subjects were examined using developed shield,darkroom and other portable dedicated device combined with a small X-ray machine.A total of 384 cases were diagnosed skeletal fluorosis.All patients were divided into different groups and the time,degree and range of X-ray to the forearm and calf elbow,knee,and long bone were compared.Results The X-ray change in the forearm elbow was earlier than that of the leg knee,and trabecular bone change was the earliest indicator,197 cases and 157 cases,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =28.006,P ＜ 0.01).Membrane ossification of forearm backbone was earlier than that of the leg,and most of them were degree Ⅰ photos,213 cases and 126 cases respectively.The difference was statistically significant (x2 =17.626,P ＜ 0.01).The direction of the interosseous membrane ossification was from the forearm radius to the ulna,then to the fibula and tibia,and was accompanied by changes in the aggravation of forearm.A variety of indicators were observed,especially the membrane ossification in bone and joint trabecular bone and the long bone was the most active,and the forearm was more sensitive,obviously than that of the calf.Conclusion In the X-ray screening or detection of endemic fluorosis,the forearm radiography is a simple,economical,and effective diagnostic method.
